Taking you into the field to discover the world of bat conservation. BatChat is for anyone who loves bats or has an interest in the conservation of these fascinating mammals. Ecologist and Bat Conservation Trust Trustee Steve Roe takes you on-location, talking to the experts as well as local heroes to bring you the latest from the world of bats.
Series 6 is out now with episodes released every other Wednesday. In this series we travel to Northumberland to visit the UK’s largest-known winter hibernation roost of pipistrelle bats, to Pembrokeshire to talk to the woman who discovered the first barbastelle bats in Wales and to the creator of a groundbreaking bat detector that’s making waves in the bat conservation community.

Bats are magical but misunderstood mammals. At the Bat Conservation Trust we have a vision of a world rich in wildlife where bats and people thrive together.
